When you are on holiday, you want to make the most of your time and find out a little bit about what it’s like to be a local. This gives you a unique insight into a place, showing you about the day to day life it offers and how it might feel to live there. Hiring a car gives you the freedom to visit the places you want to go to and see some sights that are further afield.

Make sure you hire a car from a good agency and check it over thoroughly before you drive it. Make note of any dents or scratches so you can talk to the agency and won’t be blamed for it.

At the same time, if you really want to live the local way and want a bit of an adventure, it might be fun to use public transport. Use local buses to get around a new country and see what it is really like.
